PRESS RELEASE
Today Three announces that the Nokia Lumia 1020 will be available later this year on its Ultrafast network. Already covering 80 per cent of the UK population, Three's Ultrafast network is supported by DC-HSDPA technology, with 4G due later this year.
When 4G does arrive, this ground breaking phone will be future-proofed, meaning Three customers get to experience even faster speeds, at no extra cost.
Sylvia Chind, Head of Devices at Three said, "Boasting one of the best camera experiences we've ever seen, Nokia Lumia 1020 is a feat of smartphone engineering. Coupled with Three's all-you-can-eat data, our customers can make the most of their snaps, sharing them quickly over Three's Ultrafast network, without the fear of being stung by out-of-bundle data charges."
